Igeekphone News reported on April 21st: REDMI K90 Max was officially launched today. This is a new model in the K series, focusing on providing an unparalleled gaming experience.
The most remarkable feature of this new model is the inclusion of air-cooling technology. It is Xiaomi’s first air-cooled mobile phone. It is equipped with a 18.1mm ultra-large-sized fan, and the maximum single airflow is 0.42 CFM, far exceeding that of competing products in the industry.
In addition, REDMI adopts a vertical air intake structure, and directly blows air onto the SoC area. Combined with a simulated vortex air duct, the air volume utilization rate reaches 78.6%, ranking first in the industry.
Even REDMI has managed to utilize waste heat. The air blown out can further lower the temperature on the back by passing through areas such as the battery.
The actual test results show that the K90 Max can reduce its temperature from 48℃ to 38℃ in just 100 seconds, which is much faster than other similar models. Even during 4 hours of playing “Kingdom Come: Makers”, the maximum temperature did not exceed 36.7℃.
The fan supports three-speed adjustment and can be turned on automatically or manually. The suspended air-cooling architecture features an independent sealed air duct, ensuring that the overall device’s IP66/IP68/IP69 dust-proof and waterproof certification is not compromised. A 6-year fan warranty is provided, and lifetime free cleaning is included.
In terms of noise, the K90 Max has implemented noise reduction measures throughout the entire cooling system. Even when the fan is set to the maximum speed, the noise level is only 32 decibels, which is comparable to the ambient noise level during sleep at night.
In terms of performance, the K90 Max is equipped with the MediaTek 9500 + AI dedicated graphics chip D2, along with LPDDR5X memory and UFS 4.1 flash memory. Its overall score is 4.16 million points, making it the highest score in the MediaTek lineup at present.
In terms of the screen, the K90 Max is equipped with a 6.83-inch large display. It is made using the M10 luminescence technology system and has an ultra-high brightness of 3500nits. It supports a multi-finger touch reporting rate of 480Hz and an instantaneous sampling rate of 3500Hz. It also supports HDR10+ and the Qingshan Eye Protection 3.0 technology, ensuring both strong light visibility and long-term eye protection.
The most crucial aspect is that it has also upgraded to a 165Hz ultra-high refresh rate. It natively supports the 165fps mode for over 40 games, and also offers game-specific dark zone optimization and hot zone touch optimization.
With the D2 dedicated graphics card, it is possible to achieve ultra-frame and ultra-resolution for over 100 games, achieving 1.5K resolution and 165fps concurrent full-frame performance.
The symmetrical dual-speaker design also comes with Sound by Bose joint tuning, enhancing the volume of footsteps by 200%, adding a new gaming microphone, and upgrading the e-sports network.
In addition to its outstanding performance, the new model will also be equipped with an 8550mAh large battery, 16% ultra-high silicon content, and support 100W wired fast charging, compatibility with 100W PPS fast charging protocol, and also supports bypass charging. You can play while charging without getting hot.
In terms of imaging, the K90 Max is not its main selling point, but it still features a 50-megapixel high dynamic range main camera, with an upgraded f/1.68 large aperture, and supports OIS optical stabilization, making shooting more stable and resulting in higher image quality.
